Struck by how @GreenPartyHan's brilliant victory speech is a broadside against neoliberal meritocracy – like so many other (esp female w-class) voices right now. This is exactly what Bev Skeggs & I discuss in our new article, 'Social Mobility is a Joke': journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.…

It was a pleasure to write this review of @chouliaraki_l’s brilliant new book Wronged: The Weaponization of Victimhood for @EJCS_Journal. Wronged is an essential text for this crazymaking moment in public moral politics, and I can’t recommend it highly enough 👇
Wow! Brilliant reflection on Wronged in @EJCS_Journal.@kat_hig 🙏 Wronged opens new ways of thinking about the centrality of pain in political life, while inviting us to meet the challenge of reclaiming victimhood to build a more just, less painful world. journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.…
